Filed to story: Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me
Blake knew Callum’s methods well, and he immediately began begging for mercy.
“Spare me, Callum! I’ve already said that it’s not easy to find someone. There aren’t many girls like this in the entertainment circle. Even if there are, they’re just vulgar. I can’t find anyone who’s an elegant beauty at all.”
“That doesn’t mean they don’t exist. I’ll give you one day. If you still can’t find a candidate, you can just quit your job.”
Callum issued an ultimatum, and after hearing that, Elspeth sent Blake a smile to calm him down before pointing at the news that popped up on the monitor and said indifferently,
“I think she’s not bad.”
On the front cover of the news was a young girl with a sweet and pure appearance. She was the most popular star at the time, Yelena Sullivan.
“But which part of her screams seductive?”
Blake was utterly bemused. Wasn’t this a girl who was even more innocent and adorable than Elspeth?
Elspeth smiled lightly.
“She’ll be playing the angel, and I’ll be the devil.”
“You don’t look like a devil to me,”
Blake mumbled under his breath.
Upon seeing Elspeth’s confident and assured expression, Callum immediately calmed down. If she says so, she must have her reasons.
Without wasting a beat, he sent someone to talk to Yelena about the contract, who unexpectedly agreed immediately. After working out a date to meet, they decided on three in the afternoon that Sunday.
As Elspeth had never met this huge celebrity, who took the whole of Damoria by storm on TV, before, she was a little curious, so she went to the shooting set early. Not long after she arrived, Yelena followed suit. Unlike her innocent and lovely appearance on TV, the Yelena in front of her had an arrogant countenance, as if she were a spoiled princess.
When her eyes fell on Elspeth, she casually looked her up and down before saying languidly,
“You’re Elspeth Lynwood?”
Elspeth nodded.
“You’re right. That’s me.”
“I heard that you have a marriage contract with the five sons of the Winthrop Family, right?”
Yelena was still quite young, somewhere in her teens. She was a young idol but managed to become a B-list celebrity with her innocent and cute looks in less than a year. This achievement alone proved that she was rather skilled.
Elspeth nodded.
“That’s right. Everyone in Damoria knows this.”
Upon seeing that there was no trace of admiration for herself on Elspeth’s face, Yelena was a little perplexed. Usually, everyone would look at her with a look of worship wherever she went. But now, why was this woman looking at her without even a hint of emotion on her face? No, she even looked a little… mischievous?
“Then, which of the five Winthrop sons do you like the most?”
Instantly, Elspeth understood what she meant. It seemed that this new idol was a secret admirer of the five Winthrop sons.
“What’s the problem? Does my crush have anything to do with our collaboration?”
Elspeth asked.
Yelena was taken aback because she had not expected anyone to refuse to answer her question.
Grimacing, she stated,
“Of course it does! Don’t bother asking why. Just tell me!”
“Why don’t you tell me who you’re interested in?”
Yelena flushed when she heard that.
How did she find out about it?
When the manager beside her heard that, she quickly grabbed Yelena’s arm and warned her not to talk too much.
“Yelena doesn’t have a crush on anyone.”
You’ve got to be kidding me! There are so many male fans watching. If Yelena’s hidden love scandal becomes public, it will harm her reputation.
“Okay. I’m not going to ask anymore because you don’t have one.”
Elspeth chuckled and quickly skirted the subject.
Since the key characters were present, Yelena and Elspeth began doing their makeup.
Yelena did not pipe down. She was unhappy that the makeup artist did not showcase her beauty while applying makeup. At that point, she revved up her arrogance.
“This will make my eyes appear smaller! Also, what are those sequins? My face looks terrible. Are you certain you want this job? You should resign from your job if you can’t do makeup for me properly! I’ve never met a more incapable artist than you!”
Elspeth frowned when she heard those words. She couldn’t help but take a step forward to have a look.
The moment she took a closer look, she knew that Yelena’s makeup looked nice, but something was wrong.
Yelena, who had worked in the entertainment industry for a long time, could identify the difference in makeup quality.
“Please don’t blame me, Miss Sullivan. I tried my best with this makeup look…”
The artist was depressed. She tried her hardest but for some inexplicable reason, she could not perform well.
Elspeth then touched the artist on the shoulder.
“It’s alright. Just leave this to me. You may take a short break.”
“Mr. Winthrop, I had no idea that a respected company like the Winthrop Group can’t even recruit a talented. artist. What a farce!”
Yelena spoke plainly while cockily crossing her arms.
“Miss Sullivan, don’t be so quick to pass judgment. Is it okay if I give it a go?”
At that, Yelena glanced at Elspeth with disgust.
“You? Are you certain you can pull it off? Ordinary makeup artists do not appeal to me.”
“You’ll never know unless I try. Please have a seat; I’ll take care of it right now.”
People around Elspeth assumed she was only attempting to appease Yelena until she used a makeup remover to clean Yelena’s face before delicately applying a moisturizer.
“Are you certain you can pull it off?”
Without makeup, Yelena’s face was as smooth as silk. She was fair and attractive.
“Of course,”
Elspeth murmured as she gently massaged Yelena’s skin.
“Your face is adorable, so a small application of foundation should suffice. You also don’t need to use a lot of concealers.”
Yelena grunted in response.
Her makeup artists usually wanted her to look fairer, much like a porcelain doll with a warped beauty.
“The sequins will make you look vulgar, so I’ll substitute a feather in the corners of your eyes. Then I’ll cover it with a layer of gold powder.”
Elspeth did all those while she was explaining things. She quickly applied Yelena’s makeup with quick gestures.
Even the makeup artists’ eyes opened in awe after the final touch.
